WR - New War Training idea

Since the Western Region doesn't seem to get to have lots of big melees,
try this one. Take one fighter and have them fight 2 or 3 fighters at
once. This gives them the experience of fighting against a shield wall
all by themselves. Try to keep the 2 or 3 man unit together and have the
lone fighter do his/her best to keep them occupied and/or kill at least
one of them. This teaches them:
1) confidence that they can acheive some success
2) the knowledge of how to do it
3) gives them the experience, so that if this does happen at the war,
well guess what? I trained for this.
4) an edge in the shield wall. They are now used to fighting and
dodgeing blows from multiple opponents.

    This also opens up their battlefield vision. Most fighters tend to
have tunnel vision on the field. This experience will give them the full
field vision needed to fight multiple opponents at once. Don't
concentrate too hard on any one man in the shield wall. His friend next
to him, will kill you. Etc. Etc.


Just some rambling thoughts,

Sir Aaron
